Detailed Description

The QDBusPendingCallWatcher class provides a convenient way for waiting for asynchronous replies.

Attention
Module: QtDBus
Since
4.5

The QDBusPendingCallWatcher provides the finished() signal that will be emitted when a reply arrives.

It is usually used like the following example:

QDBusPendingCall async = iface->asyncCall("RemoteMethod", value1, value2);
QDBusPendingCallWatcher *watcher = new QDBusPendingCallWatcher(async, this);
this, SLOT(callFinishedSlot(QDBusPendingCallWatcher*)));

Note that it is not necessary to keep the original QDBusPendingCall object around since QDBusPendingCallWatcher inherits from that class too.

The slot connected to by the above code could be something similar to the following:

void MyClass::callFinishedSlot(QDBusPendingCallWatcher *call)
{
if (reply.isError()) {
showError();
} else {
QString text = reply.argumentAt<0>();
QByteArray data = reply.argumentAt<1>();
showReply(text, data);
}
call->deleteLater();
}

Note the use of QDBusPendingReply to validate the argument types in the reply. If the reply did not contain exactly two arguments (one string and one QByteArray), QDBusPendingReply::isError() will return true.

Constructors and Destructors

◆ QDBusPendingCallWatcher()

QDBusPendingCallWatcher::QDBusPendingCallWatcher ( const QDBusPendingCall call,
QObject parent = 0 
)

Creates a QDBusPendingCallWatcher object to watch for replies on the asynchronous pending call call and sets this object's parent to parent.

QDBusPendingCallWatcherHelper * watcherHelper
Q_INVOKABLE QObject(QObject *parent=0)
Constructs an object with parent object parent.
Definition: qobject.cpp:753
MessageType type() const
Returns the message type.
static bool invokeMethod(QObject *obj, const char *member, Qt::ConnectionType, QGenericReturnArgument ret, QGenericArgument val0=QGenericArgument(0), QGenericArgument val1=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val2=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val3=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val4=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val5=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val6=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val7=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val8=QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val9=QGenericArgument())
Invokes the member (a signal or a slot name) on the object obj.

◆ ~QDBusPendingCallWatcher()

QDBusPendingCallWatcher::~QDBusPendingCallWatcher ( )

Destroys this object.

If this QDBusPendingCallWatcher object was the last reference to the unfinished pending call, the call will be canceled.

Functions

◆ finished

void QDBusPendingCallWatcher::finished ( QDBusPendingCallWatcher self)
signal

This signal is emitted when the pending call has finished and its reply is available.

The self parameter is a pointer to the object itself, passed for convenience so that the slot can access the properties and determine the contents of the reply.

◆ isFinished()

bool QDBusPendingCallWatcher::isFinished ( ) const

Returns true if the pending call has finished processing and the reply has been received.

Note that this function only changes state if you call waitForFinished() or if an external D-Bus event happens, which in general only happens if you return to the event loop execution.

See also
QDBusPendingReply::isFinished()

◆ waitForFinished()

void QDBusPendingCallWatcher::waitForFinished ( )

Suspends the execution of the calling thread until the reply is received and processed.

After this function returns, isFinished() should return true, indicating the reply's contents are ready to be processed.

QDBusPendingReply::waitForFinished()

Definition at line 567 of file qdbuspendingcall.cpp.
